How do you feel about mark ingram now?

I know this is probably repetitive to see, but how do you guys feel about mark Ingram with the way he runs and if we can get a better push on the o-line do you think he can be a starter (1000+ rusher) next year?

He gone.

I just love invisible threads.. So much intrigue.

New Orleans will not have a 1000 yard rusher as long as Sean Payton is coach.

...Maybe it won't be Ingram, but it'll happen. Have some faith Oak.

Not as long as the Saints keep as many RBs as we do, plus throwing the ball as much as we do.

Whether we have 1 1000 yard back or 4 250 yard backs the end result is the same. 1000 yards rushing.

You misunderstood my reply. I put absolutely zero credence in "we need a 1000 yard running back".

Sean Payton was burned at the end of a season searching for RBs he will never have a 1000 work horse that will leave him hanging again.

He spreads the ball, no one gets enough carries for 1000 yards

I feel about the same as I always have.

I look forward to seeing him against Tampa Bay in the Dome in two weeks, ESPECIALLY if we are resting Pierre and Sproles, but beyond that .... not sure.

As far as the way he runs, I like him MUCH better recently, it's been like someone lit a fire under him. Got to stop spinning and spiking the ball, though. This is the NFL, just leave it there or give it to the ref.

If the Tampa game becomes meaningless it would be REALLY interesting to just put Ingram out there, sink or swim, give him a really heavy workload, see what he can do as a "conventional" feature back....let other teams see it as well.

I know a lot of people liked Chris Ivory and I liked him too, he was fun... but I've had one of those weird "flash" time travel moments where I saw into the future, I saw the 2015-16 Saints and beyond, and I'm convinced Khiry Robinson is Pierre Thomas 2.0 -- just give him a couple of years to grow. Running the screen, blocking for Drew, scrambling through holes when there are none, powerful runner, fighting, never giving up -- I believe he can do all that, just give him time to grow into it.
